37、ervation of wildlife habitat.DSome bacteria件田菌）have a superpower that scientists would love to use. These bacteria gain energy from light, just as plants do.Scientists have wanted to use cyanobacteria（蓝藻菌 ）to make electricity. But in previous research, they didnt survive long on artificial surfaces.

38、 Researchers have now moved them to a living surface - a mushroom. Their creation is the first mushroom to make electricity.Applied Physicist Simon Jackson and his team turned that mushroom into a mini energy farm. This bionic（生物电子的）mushroom combines 3D printing, conductive ink and bacteria to gener

39、ate electricity. Its design could lead to new ways of combining nature with electronics.Like plants, cyanobacteria make their own food from sunlight, releasing electrons（电子）. When enough electrons build up in one place, they can create an electric current.The researchers needed to bring a lot of the

40、se bacteria together. They decided to use 3D printing to place them precisely onto a surf ace Jacksons team chose mushrooms for that surface. After all, they realized, mushrooms naturally host communities of bacteria and other microbes. Finding test subjects for their tests was easy. Jackson simply

41、went to the grocery store and picked up white button mushrooms.Printing on those mushrooms, though, turned out to be a real challenge. 3D printers have been designed to print on flat surfaces, but mushroom caps are curved. The researchers spent months writing computer code to solve the problem. Even

42、tually, they came up with a program to 3D print their ink onto the curved mushroom tops.The researchers printed twoinksonto their mushrooms. One was a green ink made of cyanobacteria. They used this to make a spiral pattern on the cap. They also.used a black ink made of graphene, which is great at c

43、onducting electricity. They printed this ink in a branching pattern across the mushroom top.Then it was time to shine.Cyanobacteria are the real heroes here,“says Jackson. When his team shone light on the mushrooms, the bacteria gave out electrons. Those electrons flowed into the graphene and create

44、d an electric current.32. What was the problem in previous research?A. Cyanobacteria didnt produce electrons.B.Cyanobacteria couldnt get enough light.C.The researchers chose the wrong bacteria.D.No suitable home was made for cyanobacteria.33. Why were mushrooms finally chosen as test subjects?A.They

Bionic mushroom makes electricity第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Home gardens produce delicious food.Bu

47、t thats not their main virtue.Imagine a plate holding two strawberries, identical in appearance. One came out of a supermarket box, probably harvested unripe. 36 The other was picked from a garden minutes before being eaten. The first one will probably taste like a slightly sour grape while the seco

48、nd is likely to be sweet and rich in flavour.Supermarket strawberries are not entirely without advantages. They are convenient and available in the northern globe even in February. But the two berries differ from each other in the same way that hearing Beethovens Moonlight Sonata in a concert hall differs from listening to it on an old tape. 37Other people, however, believe gardening a waste of time. But the same could be said ofcooking. There are cheap and decent restaurants around, so why bother to make your own meals?38 They mistake the product for the purpose.Actually, a garden,
